although I really appreciate the innovation and continuing expansion of the NMM and its features, I would much rather have you concentrate on making the Nexus and its servers stable first and put the work on the NMM to the side until all the site issues are fixed. The NMM works fine right now before the 0.50 update but the site has serious connectivity issues. 502 bad gateway......a lot.

Thanks for continuing to make this the best site to get mods period. NMM still has a few issues but it is to the point now where I use it instead of manually installing mods. Since all this continues to be free, I can certainly live with the growing pains and server issues. ;)

502 BAD GATEWAY 502 BAD GATEWAY 502 BAD GATEWAY 502 BAD GATEWAY and 502 BAD GATEWAY when trying to leave this comment. I will be ecstatic when that doesn't come up anymore.

I will be excited for the day where "bad gateway" doesn't show up while trying to browse on the Nexus sites! I did switch to the Chrome browser since Firefox now seems to have issues and is slower than hell lately. This helped the site browsing a lot in regards to speed. Firefox used to be my go to browser but they are seriously dropping the ball at Mozilla. If others are having issues with site speed, try viewing the site with Chrome, it made a big difference for me even with Dark0ne's server issues. A side by side comparison had Chrome opening the page in half the time. To tell the truth, I would much rather have some kind of a save game manager than a profile manager. A utility with the ability to remove save bloat from saves would be a god send. Something to consider. I would much rather have it as a feature in the NMM then to have a 3rd party app. The mods I choose aren't really class specific either so a profile manager isn't necessary for me seeing as the mods I run are used for all my toons. Even if I might be running mage and get a mage specific mod, Lydia is my favorite companion (Bijin Warmaidens ftw!)) and is a sword and board tank so I still need both kinds of mods. (just an example) I also would like better mod removal/deactivation features. Some mods I have installed break the game and cause CTDs while starting Skyrim if I remove them now in NMM. Just my 2 cents from a couple of things on my wish list. :) Keep up the hard work and I really appreciate all the great features of this site and the NMM.

I absolutely LOVED NWN2 and the expansions for that. I was too intimidated by the whole "modding" thing back then to attempt even adding the easiest of mods. With the way IGN dissed all of us who were unhappy with the Mass Effect ending (including those of us who stayed civil), I would never go to one of their sites now anyway. I have been thinking of dusting off NWN2 and modding it. NWN2 was my first official "love" of an RPG that got me started on the whole RPG gaming and ultimately got me to try a game called Oblivion that I had discounted before being a first person shooter type guy online in counter-strike and later source. What a good choice that was! I have since foregone going to any other sites for modding other than ones the NEXUS doesn't cover like Mass Effect. (I wish we could mod ME3 now!) This family of sites is so far superior to the others It would be a waste of time to go anywhere else. It was a pleasant surprise to go to my trusty drop down menu and see other sites up. Thank you for providing a place to save the mods I never go to try.... *reaches for his NWN2 case to install*

love what you did with the armor and would really like it if you did the boots and gloves.

thanks, I will give that a whirl. I do have a higher end system so FPS inside could be spiking.

upon entering an interior, sometimes the clutter just goes flying like I did a fus-rah-dah and sometimes I can wiggle my mouse back and forth and disrupt clutter like I have a big invisible hand extended out even when my weapon is sheathed. I have like 37 mods installed in esp format and a bunch of stuff in my data folder like mesh and texture swaps. Is there a known mod that has collision issues and could cause this so I don't have to waste hours of testing?

happens to me on both Firefox 9 with my adblock both enabled and disabled and on IE9 with no adblocks, no script or filters installed or running at all. Skyrim, TES4 and DA Nexus are all doing that to me.

I got my first no timeout look today! woot! I really like the color scheme you choose for the skyrim nexus. for some reason that blue really fits. might be nice to hear after the color issues of the other sites after the change over. My first playthrough is done so let the modding begin!

I was pretty sure that is what was causing it.....the popularity making more than normal clicks. One would have thought that 0ne would have anticipated that. :tongue: Especially if that 0ne was Dark lol. In all seriousness, I guess this means that we will just have to accept that some of us can't get to content until the site calms down some. I am wondering if this is affecting the ability to upload mods for Skyrim as well? Is there no way to temp enhance the site server to handle the clicks for a while? I have just given up and will check back at the end of the week for mods. I want to play through vanilla first anyway so I can see what I want and don't want.

I was able to get a little further in but I still timeout after about 2 or three clicks in. Trying to read the comments about issues before downloading is frustrating as best. I am by Seattle, WA which is PST if where we are makes a difference. the other nexus sites work fine still for me.

what are the chances that you guys can get some extra server resources and/or bandwidth set up for the Skyrim nexus so that I can look at more than one page or even one page before I get the timeout? I know it is popular but I can't even look at the mod's description before I get a timeout. could they beef that up at the server for a while until the "new-ness" wears off of the Skyrim nexus? I would love to try one of those "no dirt" mods but I can't get far enough into the pages to try and download any of the mods. btw, the other site I view frequently is the dragon age nexus and that site works normally so it isn't just on my end.

thanks for this. I like filters and this will make browsing even better for me.

too cutesy for me too but my kids will like it. in a couple of days anything but Skyrim will be like...."huh? what? I can't remember anything but Skyrim!"

o_O say what? I feel like I just asked someone what 2+2 equals and had them answer "yes"....... OK, back on topic... Do you guys running the Nexus feel like this Gmod problem will take care of itself now that they can't leech off of the Nexus family of sites? or should we get more proactive?

I live close to Seattle but I would hesitate to work with them unless they showed a serious commitment to change what is wrong with their TOS and policies. I think that they have enough feedback to get started on that and if they are serious and want to run a legit site, they will get started doing some changes and quit stealing our work....if not, we can look at more aggressive ways of getting them to comply with not stealing our identities and work.\ *edit* ROFL! Vagrant lolol! The sad thing is he doesn't seem to see what he is doing is FAR worse to us then what google did to him..... The irony! I guess he needs to take his own advice.....well after he gets over his outrage from the program that looks for words like "attached" and an actual attached file lol. I posted this on the Gmod Presses YouTube channel....

I didn't see my name on the "taken down list". I have mods out for both Dragon Age and Oblivion and any of them under my name, XTR3M368 or Rapture-X which is my and my partners modder name. While you are at it, take down any from InBleedingRapture as well cuz he is my partner and he doesn't want his stuff exploited....I can have him post himself if need be but that will just make you look worse if you force him to tell you to do something that you should be doing on your own. @Kriesher Here is the crux of the issue for me. If you would have pm'd me and my partner and ASKED to put a page up with a link as a mirror to be directed to my description page here, I probably would have said yes.....no "account" though, that would be a deal breaker. I shouldn't have to have an account on your site, it is you that have put our stuff up, not us that put our stuff up. I have enough forums, sites and blogs to visit other than this one as it is and maintaining mods both here and at the BioWare Social Network is enough time out of my day as it is. As long as the mod was ONLY a page with links and I didn't have to maintain it and all questions could be asked on this site where I actually visit....no big deal. Dark0ne has hosted the files for us for a long time with honest, dependable service and rules. I wouldn't mind a redirect link to this site, but hosting any of my or my partners files violates our terms of use. I used to have roommates like you that would eat my food out of the refrigerator without asking. That might be OK where you are from but that pisses me off. --Here is another deal breaker for me now....you were attempting to set it up so you could leech off of Dark0ne.... :down: --You created an account for me and other people without asking. :down: (I am assuming this due to me having mods out because I absolutely refuse to download any software to use a site. Dark0ne does it without having some kind of malware program, why can't you if you are honest?) --I have seen people say that they don't have full admin control over their mods on your site.....yet again I would classify that as dishonest at best and outright thuggery at worst. I would just trash your current project because GMOD is going to get badmouthed over the net until the shady business practices stop.

I would say most Russian sites at least do not steal bandwidth and most of it's users would not be able to navigate an English site like the nexus. Most mods are also translated by those Russian communities also. So doesn't hurt anyone really. And thanks for blocking them Dark0ne ;D No, they don't steal bandwidth, they just steal your whole mod and post it illegally on their site. So yes it does hurt us...really, are you that naive? I'd rather not get into a debate here but when a mod is introduced to another huge community that don't just c+p it to their site but also take efforts and translate it? I don't see why not. I am not what you exactly call a great modder but if my mod is good enough for someone to take efforts to translate and introduce to people that might have had no chance to have it before on an English site... Speak for yourself. You can do what ever you like with your mods. :thumbsup: Yep, Yep. I agree with Ghogiel. You can do whatever you want with your mods but stealing is stealing. You might not care if they steal from you but I care if they steal from me. I will put it in terms you might understand. Ford likes it when you drive their vehicles, but they wouldn't let you translate their vehicles into Russian and then market them as your own. now back on subject. Thank you, Thank you Dark0ne for blocking those guys.

Thanks Dark0ne. It is too bad those Russians are still getting away with stealing content and uploading it though. I wish that country would crack down on that.

I just posted this comment on his youtube....Shezrie's latest is still there too....
